I take it that 219 is bad.... I have around 45-60... is that due to the type of internet like dial up or cable.

A quote from Scuzzy's "Internet Hints and Tips" 

"Let me start by dispelling some myths.
1) Your ping is some what irrelevant to the servers. If it is below 300ms, then you are golden. I see complaints from people complaining about thier ping going from 10 to 60. To Aces High, you have the same connection at those rates. 
However, the best connection is one that is steady without wide swings in the packet latencies"

OT

uh....bummer Larry.....

No 219 isn't bad. My connection is stable and where I live its dial up or satellite. Now if you want to see a bad connection fight someone with that setup. Anyone who thinks it is bad really doesnt know anything.

I want 219!!  I get 900-1400, well those are the times I fly, if it is 1500-3000+ I don't even try.  Satellite: Bad ping, almost never goes out, decent speeds....bad pings, yes it needs to be said again. :)
However I have no packet loss in-game and variance is good.

At one time I flew at 170 ping times and I hated it but I guess it could have not been steady. I dont remember it varying much.

I have a ping of 187. From Stockholm, Sweden to New York it is 70ms. From there it goes downhill.

US lines sucks  :D

I had a T1 that hit HTC in 6 hops.  (it was an ATT T1 that went right to Dallas)

14ms ping.

"sniff"

I miss that connection.

I have also used a dial-up that had a 200 ish ping and it was quite stable and very flyable.

(I have had 2-3 DSL/Cable connections that were never as "stable" as that dial-up one that were 60-90ms pings)

It is when you hit 3-500ms that "stuff" starts getting "odd".

Mine used to look like that when I lived in Houston. I was about a block away from the SBC building. On good days I would even get single digit. I could surf the web with ease and download porn in seconds. Those were the days.  :cry

What you should have done is gone to the AvA since there wasnt even anybody in there. No people = total domination and free reign to horde every base on the map! Well... by horde I mean just you... :lol

  Hey man, we can't all have the wonderful life.  If you can hold a steady 250, well you are doing damn good.  As long as it's not jumping all over the place, well then it's time to play.  I hold around a 240-275 ping.  It's when it gets erratic that I worry and start warping and all.  Then comes the "HOST LOST CONNECTION".  I always get told that it is my ISP, but I can jump on FS-X, or surf the web with no problems, after that message. 

I reckon' it's all Microsoft's fault.  :D

Don't you have squad night in the less populated arena?

I agree bubi.  The whole "I want to fly with my squad" argument against the arena caps makes no sense.  If your squad won't move to blue so you can fly together, it's time for another squad.
